About This Item

IMG_0374.JPG

Thanks to 2 Cats Big Tex TB achieved his first goal on July 6, 2005 which was to visit the grave of Fort Worth's namesake, General William Jenkins Worth, who is buried beneath a fifty foot-granite spire at Broadway and Fifth Avenue in New York City.

Big Tex's goals now are to visit places of significance in the life of General Worth:

  • The Military Academy at West Point where he was commandant of Cadets in 1825,
  • Tampa Bay, Florida where he ended the Seminole War in 1842, and
  • San Antonio, Texas where he was Commander of the Department of Texas in 1849.
